I was more freaked out by the Toddler thing. It wasn't creepy as much as :wtc:

It's an AU-fic-askblog-whatever where a swimming teacher gives rest to her maternal istincts by writing about baby versions of the cast. It's pretty innocent, all things considered. I posted mainly because I find it pretty well written and cute considering the source. Sorry if it upset you but I don't find it weird.

If you REALLY want to go :wtc: you need to read Homestuck High. It's the My Immortal of Homestuck and that's saying enough.

From the lowercase first name, uppercase second name, I presume that paradoxGentleman here is an import from the official MSPA forums. Thus, it is reasonable to assume that they do know a lot about the Homestuck fanfic scene.

Oh, I know there's some weird poo poo out there when it comes to fanfiction. I just happen to know the most infamous part of it. Can you honestly tell me that Homestuck High doensn't deserve its reputation?

I guess I was in the wrong for presuming, then. Well, now you know: Homestuck has its own So Horrible It's Hilarious fanfiction. Do with this knowledge what you will.

While I didn't make an account for the fanfiction thread, I did try my hand at the MSPA forum. On the one hand, it's a nice place and they have some pretty cool fan adventures. On the other, they can be a bit overenthusiastic at times and the Classpect thread is almost impossible to follow.

If I don't understand what the problem is, I'm hardly going to find a way to fix it. So I might as well keep shaming myself and maybe I'll understand what I'm doing wrong.

Allright, time to explain the joke, beacause you don't seem to get it:

Homestuck High is one of the worst pieces of fiction ever written by human hands. The grammar is atrocious to the point of being impossible to understand, the plot doesn't make sense even by fanfiction standard and the characters can barely be defined as such. I was suggesting it to have a laugh at it, not because it's good.
I know you're trying to be passive-aggressive here, but I'm honestly just trying to contribute to the conversation. If someone could please explain where I went wrong I'd be happy to correct myself.

Thanks for the info. While I did find some fanfiction worthy of being read, I understand that there is a pretty heavy precedent for disliking it. Whatever.

I never found stoner jokes to be all that funny, honestly.
But if we're talking about alternate character interpretation, I'll say that I have a sweet spot for Toddlerstuck.
There's something inherently pleasant in taking the universe-shaking events in Homestuck and put them in a pre-school context.
edit: eliminated link because it's against the rules to post fanfiction. Sorry about that.

So, jokes that are about adult situations are bad. Jokes about very young child situations are good. Combine that with the rest of your posting, and I sure have :frogsiren: in my head.

It's just stoners, not adult situations in general. And I didn't say that they're bad, just that I don't find them funny. If you like them, more power to you.

Serious talk time. I appreciate that you're being very diplomatic in your responses here, but you should probably take Forum Rule #1 to heart and just lurk more. Your candor in this thread has come off as really quite creepy, and exactly the kind of Homestuck fan behavior that is often made fun of on the SA Forums. Again, the fact that you're being so cool about people razzing you is nice, but dude. Just take a break from posting.

If the cabin fever is getting to you, you can always retreat to the reread thread. We're not too far into Act 6 at the moment, so if you want to refresh yourself on it before the final update, now would be a great time to start. Better than discussing fanfic and generally embarrassing ourselves even more than we already have by liking this comic in the first place, anyway.

I probably should have taken this advice when it was posted the first time. Oh well, thanks anyway. I'll take a break now.

Just as a disclaimer: I didn't mean anything weird by "pleasant". English is not my first language and sometimes I pick the wrong word for expressing what I want to say.

SA is filled completely with self-loathing nerds. Even if we like something, we'll be damned if we admit it. do not praise stuff unless you include a good deal of :negative: with it. For the love of god, do not admit to liking secondary works to nerdy poo poo like fanfics unless you strongly imply that you are a big gay baby for liking it (or you're koos)

Because of what I just posted, I am not going to link the homestuck version of Just Lose It, but I am going to certainly imply it exists.

Just Lose It is very appropriate for Homestuck, since they are both terrible

vv it started from the first space jam mix in SUaJ:G and hasn't looked back since.
